Seems a bug for the layout for the Chinese Character

With Chinese characters in the DataFrame, it seems the tabulate package cannot identify the correct width.

import pandas as pd
import tabulate

print(tabulate.__version__)
print(tabulate.WIDE_CHARS_MODE)
df = pd.DataFrame({
    '序号':['001', '021', '032'],
    '类型': ['汽车TESLA', '飞机737-MAX', 'TRAIN'],
    '备注': ['特殊', '一长串字符', '字符+1020']
})
print(tabulate.tabulate(df, tablefmt="github"))

The Output is : 0.8.7 True |—|-----|-------------|------------| | 0 | 001 | 汽车TESLA | 特殊 | | 1 | 021 | 飞机737-MAX | 一长串字符 | | 2 | 032 | TRAIN | 字符+1020 |

@sidkang: maybe you have multiple python environments, from your Juperlab, are you able to successfully import wcwidth? if not, try

import subprocess, sys
subprocess.check_call([sys.executable, "-mpip", "install", "wcwidth"])

best wishes

Just checked the wcwidth package. Seems it is working properly.

@sidkang can you check if you have wcwidth at all installed (pip freeze | grep wcwidth)? It is an optional dependency, so python-tabulate would work happily without it, but the wide character alignment would be off. For example, my output with and without wcwidth:
